An isolated rail car originally moving with speed $v_0$ on a straight, frictionles, level track contains a large amount of sand. $A$ release valve on the bottom of the car malfunctions, and sand begins to pour out straight down relative to the rail car. Is momentum conserved in this process?

A simple pendulum of length $1 \mathrm{~m}$ has a wooden bob of mass $1 \mathrm{~kg}$. It is struck by a bullet of mass $10^{-2} \mathrm{~kg}$ moving with a speed of $2 \times 10^2 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$. The bullet gets embedded into the bob. The height to which the bob rises before swinging back is. (use $\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$ )
